Where the Wild Things Are
I’m going to go against the grain here, so if you’re going to hate, just remember: haters wanna hate.
Overall, I thought the movie was OK. It wasn’t spectacular, but good. I feel like it’s one of those movies you can watch once, appreciate it for what it is, and not be able to watch it again (kind of like Little Miss Sunshine). There’s obviously some deep things going on during the movie. Not all families or relationships are perfect, but that’s LIFE. So deal with it. Got it.
The music on the other hand was nothing short of amazing. I thought Karen O’s stuff was pretty good, but was REALLY impressed by Carter Burwell. Actually, come to think of it, the two compliment each other so well. Really an impressive score and soundtrack.
So it was a good movie. Great in some regards and just so-so in others. In any case, it’s worth watching in the theater, but in hindsight, I wouldn’t mind watching it at home either. Cheers.
